About Kimberly

LCSW-C (Maryland) clinician with three years of clinical experience, Kimberly Tawney helps people facing depression, grief, anxiety, mood disorders, and related concerns. She works with individuals who struggle with relationship and family stress, addiction issues, anger, and low self-esteem. Sessions focus on practical coping and clearer communication rather than labels alone.

Kimberly uses Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize a person’s perspective in sessions. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Mindfulness techniques and Motivational Interviewing enter treatment when clients need tools for focus and change.

Her background includes hands-on experience before and during clinical practice that informed how she approaches mood disorders and crisis-level distress. That experience is reflected in concise, goal-oriented sessions that balance emotion and action. Kimberly encourages short-term skill work alongside deeper exploration when needed.

In a session she will listen for what matters most to the client and then introduce small, doable steps. This can mean practicing thought records, setting communication goals, or using brief mindfulness exercises. The aim is to leave sessions with one or two concrete actions to try between meetings.

People who choose her often want straightforward strategies for managing stress, clearer ways to handle conflict, and focused support for grief or mood instability. Sessions are conducted in English and reflect her Maryland practice and LCSW-C credential. If you want to begin, follow the site's intake steps to match and schedule a first meeting.

How therapeutic approaches inform online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s perspective. The therapist listens for what matters most and shapes sessions around those priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and guides goal setting in practical ways.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Sessions use short exercises like thought records and behavior experiments to change patterns that contribute to depression, anxiety, or mood instability.

Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and grounding practices to reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation. These techniques often pair well with CBT tools for managing stress and mood symptoms.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to test methods and adjust them based on needs, goals, and preferences. Clients can expect a mix of listening, skill practice, and planning between sessions.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered. Confirm available session formats before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Online options can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commute time, which helps some people maintain steady progress.
